DuPont Packaging[Packaging?:DCP-H series packaging sample cutter plotter] Graphics[Graphics?:graphics pattern] has announced it has signed an agreement with PADMA Group to purchase a DuPont Cyrel FAST digital imaging system for in-house plate-making in Bangladesh. It is the first installation of a Cyrel FAST solventless thermal plate-processing.
The DuPont Cyrel FAST work flow enables PADMA to eliminate the solvent washout and drying steps, leaving behind nothing to clean up once the plate is done and on the press. Since it is a solventless system, PADMA does not have to invest in a solvent-recovery system.
DuPont Cyrel FAST and the Cyrel FAST Round systems are said to enhance the capabilities of flexographic printers across the world, enabling greater design flexibility, speed, and higher print[print?:printing image graphic cutting solution] quality. The company says Cyrel FAST reduces plate making time by over 70% and eliminates the use of organic and inorganic solvents. These systems also help reduce emissions and energy consumption.
